Ohhh parents

So I'm sure you all know the site When Parents Text, but if you have never been to it before, GO NOW!! You will die. My dad recently purchased an iPhone for himself after carrying around the same brick of a phone for about 10 years. His new phone made me think of this site, so today, while I was bored at work, I decided to read some of the latest texts. Here are a few that made my day! They are totally things my parents would text to me.

LOTR Wisdom

Dad:

Gooood morning. Love you. Use your time wisely. Remember what Gandalf said. “All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

This is totally something my dad would send to me.. If he knew how to text! He loves Lord of the Rings! I was cracking up when I read this.

Believe

Dad:

A miracle happened in mass today. Call for details

Lenten Songs

Dad:

Why can’t I find that song like a Jesus on iTunes?

Me:

You mean like a G6?

Colon

Dad:

Me:

Dad:

Me:

Dad:

Dad:

Mom:

Me:

Mom:

A1 for Waffles

Mom:

Do you want waffles or muffins for breakfast? Just text “A1” for waffles or “B1” for muffins.

Me:

Why did you go through all that trouble? Why can’t I just text “waffles” or “muffins”?

Mom:

Me:

Mom:

Dad:

Me:

Dad:

Me:

Dad:

Me:

Dad:
